I need to build an emoji, I was using
Char.toChars(0x1F1E6 - 0x41 + ‘A’.code).concatToString()
to get 🇦 emoji (and then build a country flag of two such letters). But now
toChars
marked deprecated. I checked out https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2021/04/kotlin-1-5-0-rc-released, and I can’t seem to find the replacement. What am I missing?

Why don't you just paste the emoji?

I guess he doesn't want to hardcode all countries' emojis

int.toChar()
is definitely deprecated, but not
Char.toChars(codepoint)

It got deprecated recently but feels like a mistake as there is no new alternative in
1.5

@Suppress("DEPRECATION")
doesn't mean it's deprecated, it means there's no warnings if it uses deprecated functions (looks like
Int.toChar
is deprecated)

Ah, I got confused by the word and haven’t noticed that it’s
Suppress
😁
